CAIRO, — Al-Azhar Al-Sharif has condemned the terrorist attack in Al-Arish, Egypt, which killed two people and injured four others.

The attack came a day after an inspector of public security was killed in a bomb explosion that had targeted a police patrol.

“Such criminal acts that target the Egyptian Armed Forces and Police are malicious and contrary to the teachings of the divine Sharia Law,” Al-Azhar said in a statement, expressing its strong condemnation of the cowardly terrorist acts.

Al-Azhar Al-Sharif reiterated its full support to the Egyptian Armed Forces and Police in their efforts to combat terrorism and eliminate the terrorist organisations that seek to create chaos and undermine the country’s security and stability.
